Depending upon your level of education, you could move into Case Management. It allows you to be a patient advocate, use you a different set of skills and still be clinically connected.
Also dependent upon your personality, you might enjoy Utilization Review. My personality is outgoing so I never attempted this, it doesn;t allow for much interaction.

I got into travel nursing and explored different areas where I controlled the variables. I am much happier. As a staff nurse you have little or no control. As, a travel nurse, you have all the control.
